Surprise ending that I did not anticipate. ( ) I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was interesting to learn about Yvette and the people in her life as well as the various specialties of witches. The new characters were a good addition to the series. I especially like Elena's future mother-in-law. I'm trusting there will be another book in the series and I'll be looking forward to it. This is the second book in the series and focuses more on Yvette though Elena still gets a lot of page time. Yvette is stuck in Paris and still on the run from the police for the murder of the man who attacked her. She's trying to find out more about her powers and the legacy of her mother. Elena is in Paris with her fiance Jean-Paul to meet her future mother-in-law and tries to aid Yvette while also untangling her own legacy of vine witch and poison witch. It's a good read with some new characters who are very interesting. I especially liked Jean-Paul's mother. It has a real feel for Moulin Rouge Paris in the early twentieth century which adds to the story, being very different from the countryside setting of the first book. This is a fun series and recommended for readers who like Deborah Harkness and other authors of that ilk. Fantasy is not my favorite genre of literature and this book proofed why it is not an easy read. My imagination apparently does not go beyond the real world. This book bored me but not because the narrative was not richly written. If you love fantasy, witches, and fairies, you may truly enjoy this book. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheThe Vine Witch (2)
"Abandoned as a child in turn-of-the-century Paris, Yvette Lenoir has longed to uncover the secrets of her magical heritage and tap her suppressed powers. But what brave and resourceful Yvette has done to survive the streets has made her a fugitive. With a price on her head, she clings to a memento from her past-what she believes to be a grimoire inherited from the mother she never knew. To unlock the secrets of her past, Yvette trusts in one woman to help solve the arcane riddles among its charmed pages. Elena Boureanu is the vine witch of Chateau Renard, noted for its renowned wines. Even as she struggles with her own bloodline - and its poisonous threat to her future - Elena can't ignore a friend on the run. Joined by a cunning thief, the proprietor of an enchanted-curio shop, and a bewitching black cat, Elena and Yvette are determined to decode Yvette's mysterious keepsake. But what restless magic will be unleashed? And what are Yvette and Elena willing to risk to become the witches they were destined to be?"--Provided by publisher.
